random rants

first and foremost, i want a bag and need a bag desperately!! a sling bag, to be exact. it can be a normal one or a duffle i dont care. i just want a nice bag. but sad thing is, i cant seem to find one. everybody help me look out okie? kk when u people get sick of studying for prelims den look out. haha.
talking bout prelims, i think im screwed. no wonder im talking farnie. meiqi said that i din sound like last time. last time i talked nonsense. den she said now i sound so old and serious. haha i think im too stressed out. but stress doesnt equate to results. well anyway good luck everybody. here's a nice retro song that i heard on the radio.

sweet child of mine - guns n roses

She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I'd stare too long
I'd probably break down and cry


Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine


She's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder
And the rain
To quietly pass me by


Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine


Where do we go
Where do we go now
Where do we go
Sweet child o' mine







When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep

Don’t screw my life, don’t even try. You think you all are gonna control me? Twist me round your little finger? And I am supposed to oblige like the good boy I am? Whatever. I have my own mind, I can make my own decisions well enough without your professional judgments. Its getting on my nerves, if you haven’t realized by now.

Oh yeah, since when were u so concerned about me? Oh I realized you need to study, so sorry I am gonna lock the door bye bye. No teevee for you. Oh by the way, the reason why I am watching and you have to study is cuz im a real smartass, always been. Remember how I used to thrash you in everything? Academically, musically, achievements wise. You are not entitled to the tv, cuz you’re not smart enough. Sorry. Oh my god, I realize you actually do care. I am moved to tears you know.

Yeah, I know I am childish, but let me tell you I have my limits too. You know very well yourself what is the real reason behind locking the damn door. Or has it become a habit over the years, what’s with all the covering of newspapers when there are people behind etc. I have a greater threshold for such nonsense now, thanks to the practices you all have given me over the years. But that doesn’t mean I wont blow up. That doesn’t mean I don’t give a damn, because you just screwed up my plans.

You’re messing with a bomb here. Its gonna explode any moment, with all the fiddling everyone’s giving it. Stop acting like a know all, because u aint. Stop messing around with my life, because you don’t have the right. Stop throwing your weight around, because honestly I don’t give a fuck. And release my leash, its getting more taut by the second. Let me repeat myself. I am not a kid anymore. I know what I am doing. Anything else from anyone would just screw everything up, like how everything’s fucked up tonight.

reminiscence

Its already been four years. Time flies , doesn’t it? Ndp always bring back fond memories. I guess its cause happy memories tend to stick with you for a longer time.

730 on a sat morning, at yio chu kang mrt. Breakfast of that toasted bread and iced milo at the 2sir canteen. Water breaks that allowed us to buy the chrysanthemum tea from the drink stall, lasting for eternity until someone finally realizes and shout “fall in”. then it would take about 10 mins more to get everything started. 20 mins later, it was another water break. It was also the only time when there were afternoon naps after lunch. Being able to sleep in air con bunks in 245. subsequently stinking up the entire bunk. Fighting of blankets at night when its cold hahaha. Of course, bio-ing the chio jc cheerleaders became our favourite pastime.

Then there were the sweat, the tears. Sweat standing under de midday sun, doing one run after another. The words we hated most became “form up” .sacrificing the entire Saturday, sometimes Sundays for this stupid event that lasted all of 6 mins. Sacrificing literally the entire march and june vacations. Doing rotation and jumbo until arm hit until become blue black. Doing pushups in grass so long that when we went down, we couldn’t be seen. Trying to force stale Kentucky fried chicken down our throats under the full force of the sun, and covered from head to toe in black, without drinks. Also, getting to know the only warm up that would leave everyone’s arms trembling. The only warm up that people have trouble completing. The tears, when you cock up during a show, when the pyrotechnics cannot come out, when you realize that you are a reserve. When you realize you just lost your friend’s discman haha.

The characters. . Cockanathan and his motley crew of jokers, the instructors who are slacker den us. Actually we were all slackers, including mr “monkey see monkey do” choo. Haha. A certain tall gal from KC. Haha. A certain cousin who asked everyone to quit cuz its supposedly damn xiong. And of course who could forget our beloved capt low with his marvelous vocabulary? The only one who came near was the sgt leow. anyway his quotable quote will always remain with us. Haha. “you think you’re the biggest fuck on earth? Fuck you, you understand not?” and of course, we still owe him 850 pushups. Sadness.

The spirit is immense. People from all walks of life talk to one another. You see incredible things like handphones more light bulbs than traffic light. And much brighter of course. You see people who keep fringes behind their ear. You see people who smoke in uniform, smoke at night. Chain-Smoke la basically. And don’t die from it, only become more stupid. Cuz their dari kanan bilang dunno how to count one. Bwahaha. Our favourite song was the ncc song, and we could sing it much louder than some loser UDIs from air. We only managed a solid bang once, at safti. And the only time we marched in coordination without someone cocking around was during the performance itself.

We trained together, kena sunburnt together, makan together, sleep together, caogeng together, sang ncc song together. Count arms umpteen times together because some idiot dunno how to count, slacked together, rebelled against certain CLTs together, bullied the rest together. created new cheers together, took bus together, slack at national stadium for 5 hours together. Bio the chio jc cheerleaders in their miniskirts together. Drink each others saliva from the jerry can together. Burnt our holidays together. And thus,

Together, we are NCC PRECISION DRILL SQUAD 2001.

Wah it’s a hell long and boring entry. Don’t know how many people will read this. Think only guan wld understand wad im tokin bout. But at least I can be sure that the pds memory wld be etched in our hearts for a long long time. All 160 of us. Plus maybe the instructors and capt low.

It’s a typical tropical paradise…
